Hi guys i am hoping some one will be willing to make a how to for making a Flemish string. I have searched but didn't find one some im hoping one of our string makers can help me out.
Here is one from one of our sponsors...rocky mountain specialty gear.
click here for tutorial (http://www.rmsgear.com/tutorial_string_2bundle.htm)
thank you that is just what i was looking for.
You'll find it is pretty straight forward... there are a few tricks to learn along the way, but once you start... man I make new strings for my bows all the time just cause its fun!
Fun and easy... the only down-side to making strings is the cost of materials, which is not very much.
sorry it said it didn't post and then i updated the post...
The cost is the only thing from keeping me from trying to make one right now (2 month old baby and no job atm). It looks straight forward and easy enough i am a fairly fast learner good with my hands so this should be fun.
But thanks to one of the great members on here i should have a new string by next week for free. By the time i need a new string hopefully i will have a few made.
3Rivers has video on making Flemish twist string
there is a good DVD "doing the twist"
good tips and trick for flemish 2 -3 bundle and continuous loop

i was thinking of buying the dvd but was looking for something free to see how it was done first i still think i might buy the dvd and use it as to learn. it is easier to learn by seeing it being done then just reading and looking at pictures.
